The name of France's most south westerly department - Pyrenees Atlantiques - says much about its geography but gives no hint of the colourfully different culture, cuisine, and even sport, which go to make Pyrenees-Atlantiques such a fascinating place for a holiday.
Originally part of the independent Basque kingdom of Navarre which was split and ruled by both France and Spain in the 16th century, the French Basque provinces were later merged with divisions of existing French provinces including parts of Gascony.
